Abstract

The Internet of Things (IoT) is a novel technology that makes smart devices the essential building blocks in the growth of smart pervasive frameworks. Health-related problems are considered as one of the major issues that directly affect the quality of the life. Among other applications enabled by the IoT, healthcare technologies might be the most important one. Although several pieces of research are developed for the IoT healthcare field, there are still considerably demanding research and projects of exploiting the benefits of IoT in the healthcare domain. This chapter surveys current advances in IoT-based health care focused in the aspects of privacy and security techniques, e-health and m-health, system design and architecture, cloud, fog, and evolutionary computing, as well as network and communication techniques. This chapter will directly support researchers and healthcare professionals in their understanding of developments in the domain of IoT-based healthcare technologies, thus enabling them to spark further research in this area.
